Synopsis

A fascinating account of the unusual relationship between Marilyn Monroe and her last psychiatrist in the fifteen months leading to her suicide.   Marilyn Monroe is remembered as both an iconic sex symbol and a heartbreaking figure who suffered through a chaotic childhood and wrestled with addiction and mental illness. This short true account shines new light on the last days of her life.   Dr. Ralph Greenson, a clinical professor of psychiatry at UCLA Medical School and a star among Hollywood psychoanalysts, treated Monroe for the fifteen months before her August 1962 suicide. He saw her seven days a week and brought her into his home. He never got over losing her.   Written by a practicing psychoanalyst, The Misfit recounts this tragic alliance and Marilyn Monroe’s borderline personality, offering compelling insight into the deteriorating mental state of a singular superstar.

    In Small Teaching K-8, a team of veteran educators bridges the gap between cognitive theory and the K-8 classroom environment, applying the same foundational research found in author James Lang's bestselling Small Teaching to the elementary and middle school setting. The book demonstrates how to integrate simple interventions into pre-existing pedagogical techniques to dramatically improve student outcomes. 
     
     
     
    The interventions consist of classroom or online learning activities, one-time additions, or small modifications in course design or communication. Regardless of their form, they all deliver powerful, positive consequences. 
     
     
     
    In this book, listeners will also find: 
     
     
     
    ● Foundational concepts from up-to-date cognitive research that has implications for classroom teaching and the rationales for using them in a K-8 classroom 
     
     
     
    ● Concrete examples of how interventions have been used 
     
     
     
    ● Directions on the specific timing of each intervention 
     
     
     
    An essential resource for K-8 educators seeking ways to improve their efficacy in the classroom, Small Teaching K-8 offers teachers intuitive and actionable advice on helping students absorb and retain knowledge for the long-term.

    Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind; And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind. Nor hath love's mind of any judgment taste; Wings and no eyes figure unheedy haste: And therefore is love said to be a child, Because in choice he is so oft beguil'd.

    From two distinguished experts on election law, an alarming look at how the American presidency could be stolen—by entirely legal means 
     
    Even in the fast and loose world of the Trump White House, the idea that a couple thousand disorganized protestors storming the U.S. Capitol might actually prevent a presidential succession was farfetched. Yet perfectly legal ways of overturning election results actually do exist, and they would allow a political party to install its own candidate in place of the true winner. 
     
    Lawrence Lessig and Matthew Seligman work through every option available for subverting a presumptively legitimate result—from vice-presidential intervention to election decertification and beyond. While many strategies would never pass constitutional muster, Lessig and Seligman explain how some might. They expose correctable weaknesses in the system, including one that could be corrected only by the Supreme Court. 
     
    Any strategy aimed at hacking a presidential election is a threat to democracy. This book is a clarion call to shore up the insecure system for electing the president before American democracy is forever compromised. 
     
    Lawrence Lessig is the Roy L. Furman Professor of Law and Leadership at Harvard Law School. Matthew Seligman is a fellow at the Constitutional Law Center at Stanford Law School and a partner at Stris & Maher LLP.

    Book 1: In this compact guide, we will explore the causes and consequences of anxiety, the ways to stop yourself from panicking too easily, or get stressed out too much. We will discuss strategies that have worked for others and that can work for you as well. Everybody gets anxious every once in a while. 
    Book 2: Topics include the inner critic that makes you discouraged, what factors contribute to our stress levels, and the unusual consequences of anxiety you may not have thought of. This guide can be an eye-opener if you let it. 
    Book 3: This book gives a different spin to the topic of anxiety. It covers several aspects of managing stress levels and coping with negative outside influences in your life. However, it ends with a serious challenge to eliminate all anxiety triggers from your life to your greatest ability. 
    Book 4: This manual shows some signs of highly sensitive people, and expands on what to do when you can honestly label yourself as someone with such a personality. 
    Book 5: How we can recover from childhood neglect. Many of us, no matter how loving our parents tried to be, suffer from a lack of positive attention. We have often been neglected, and our needs have not been met, whether intentionally or unintentionally. 
    Book 6: What can this guide mean to you? Aside from these topics, questions will be answered such as: 
    Is my anxiety common or do I have a disorder? 
    How do I handle anxiety attacks? 
    Book 7: Some of the most powerful tools to get rid of stress or anxiety, are mindfulness and meditation. Many people use it. To some, it’s a hype, to others, a spiritual journey, but to most people, it’s a simple way of releasing stress, calming down, and recharging.
